Make thyne world about water, today,
this moment, this week, this year, make thyne world about water, all
the experiences one may have with water for it is said even by a
rigid mind that all the world is water, all that is this world is
water. What is seen, when:
Drink first from a cup of tea, prepared
for you, perhaps for this occasion of ritual, for perhaps no such
reason, have brought to you this cup, with the intention to pay total
focus and reverence towards the experience, for then it is reverence
for yourself and for the object, and then it is a metaphor see? A
metaphor is a love, and so transcends any one but requires one.
Take the cup, both hands upon the sides
of the vessel and close thyne eyes and imagine if you will, or perhaps
listen, to the song of a flute, or if not a song, the sound of a
flue, the vocal chords of the earth, slowly and like water fluidly descend upon the cup and feel how heavy the steam caresses you, how
sultry it must curl, imagine the steam as this white silver, imagine
it as if the size of a molecule just above your lip, see each think
drop touch your skin and be absorbed, without talking you are taking
in, you are being given.
That water is much older than you can
imagine, was there at the first rain, was there forever really, since
the beginning of the universe, it lay in wait among stars, among the
potential of our future one thousand years from now. It, and you,
will be there too, then, and were together, getting together again
now in the uniqueness of this current form, in the current
contingencies that allow for the shaping of your matter, and you are
becoming one once again, a replay of the events that preceded the
explosion of the universe.
And now return, back behind thyne eyes,
and close them. Bring the cup ever closer and tilt it, and feel, the
liquid silk, so similar to the consistency of stem enter you.
The
complexity of but one drop, now a million times over.
You are
becoming the water, as you have forever.
It is given.
Some profound
truth, and for me to tell you what that truth is, is to miss the
point, that it is casual, that it is not important it is vital.
The
value that holds up the world is in that truth.
The reason we exist
on whatever plane is in that truth.
Wonderful... thank you so much...just great...
